Abstract

An information offering apparatus includes an offering unit that offers target information concerning a target of a user's action to the user; and a changing unit that changes the target information in accordance with history information concerning the user's action.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
       1. An information offering apparatus comprising:
 a processor configured to: 
 offer target information concerning a target of a user's action to the user; and 
 change the target information in accordance with history information concerning the user's action, wherein: 
 (1) the target is an event in which the user participates and the target information is explanatory information explaining a past background of the event; or 
 (2) the target is a facility which the user checks and the target information is instruction information indicative of an instruction concerning an item to be checked of the facility, the instruction information is decided, for each time corresponding to the number of visits of the user to a place to be checked in the facility, on a basis of a history of an item of the facility checked in past, and the processor is further configured to acquire voice of the user indicative of the item to be checked of the facility and update the history of the item of the facility checked in the past on a basis of the voice acquired. 
 
     
     
       2. The information offering apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein
 the user's action is an action of the user in a specific place; and 
 the history information is visit history information indicative of a history of a visit of the user to the specific place. 
 
     
     
       3. The information offering apparatus according to  claim 2 , wherein
 the visit history information indicates a history of a visit for the user's action to the specific place. 
 
     
     
       4. The information offering apparatus according to  claim 2 , wherein
 the visit history information is the number of visits of the user to the specific place. 
 
     
     
       5. The information offering apparatus according to  claim 2 , wherein
 the visit history information is whether or not the user has visited the specific place. 
 
     
     
       6. The information offering apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein
 the target is a viewed object which the user sees; and 
 the target information is explanatory information explaining the viewed object. 
 
     
     
       7. The information offering apparatus according to  claim 6 , wherein
 the processor is further configured to change the explanatory information in accordance with a direction from which the user sees the viewed object. 
 
     
     
       8. The information offering apparatus according to  claim 6 , wherein
 the processor is further configured to change the explanatory information in accordance with an order in which the user has seen a plurality of viewed objects including the viewed object. 
 
     
     
       9. The information offering apparatus according to  claim 8 , wherein
 the processor is further configured to change the explanatory information in accordance with a viewed object seen by the user before the viewed object among the plurality of viewed objects. 
 
     
     
       10. An information offering apparatus comprising:
 a processor configured to offer target information concerning a target of a user's action to the user; and 
 a controller that controls how the target information is offered by the processor in accordance with on which of a first side and a second side the target is present with respect to the direction which the user is facing such that the target information is offered to an auditory organ on the first side of the user and is not offered to an auditory organ on the second side of the user in a case where the target is present on the first side with respect to the direction which the user is facing. 
 
     
     
       11. The information offering apparatus according to  claim 10 , wherein the controller controls the processor so that the target information is offered to the auditory organ on the first side of the user in a first sound volume and is offered to the auditory organ on the second side of the user in a second sound volume smaller than the first sound volume in a case where the target is present on the first side with respect to the direction which the user is facing. 
     
     
       12. An information offering system comprising:
 an information offering apparatus that offers target information concerning a target of a user's action to the user, the information offering apparatus comprising:
 a processor configured to:
 offer target information concerning a target of a user's action to the user; and 
 change the target information in accordance with history information concerning the user's action; and 
 
 
 a transmitting apparatus that transmits the target information decided in accordance with history information concerning the user's action to the information offering apparatus, wherein 
 (1) the target is an event in which the user participates and the target information is explanatory information explaining a past background of the event; or 
 (2) the target is a facility which the user checks and the target information is instruction information indicative of an instruction concerning an item to be checked of the facility, the instruction information is decided, for each time corresponding to the number of visits of the user to a place to be checked in the facility, on a basis of a history of an item of the facility checked in past, and the processor is further configured to acquire voice of the user indicative of the item to be checked of the facility and update the history of the item of the facility checked in the past on a basis of the voice acquired. 
 
     
     
       13. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer to execute a process, the process comprising:
 offering target information concerning a target of a user's action to the user; and 
 changing the target information in accordance with history information concerning the user's action, wherein: 
 (1) the target is an event in which the user participates and the target information is explanatory information explaining a past background of the event; or 
 (2) the target is a facility which the user checks and the target information is instruction information indicative of an instruction concerning an item to be checked of the facility, the instruction information is decided, for each time corresponding to the number of visits of the user to a place to be checked in the facility, on a basis of a history of an item of the facility checked in past, and the processor is further configured to acquire voice of the user indicative of the item to be checked of the facility and update the history of the item of the facility checked in the past on a basis of the voice acquired. 
 
     
     
       14. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer to execute a process, the process comprising:
 transmitting target information concerning a target of a user's action to the user; and 
 controlling how the target information is offered in accordance with on which of a first side and a second side the target is present with respect to the direction which the user is facing such that the target information is offered to an auditory organ on the first side of the user and is not offered to an auditory organ on the second side of the user in a case where the target is present on the first side with respect to the direction which the user is facing.
